Shower tray repair at your home in Kingsfold
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and damage from a refit or building work, across enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Kingsfold and across West Sussex.

Should you replace it?
The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Kingsfold
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Kingsfold
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Do you work in Kingsfold?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Kingsfold from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Kingsfold?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
